The mission of P.A.C.T. (Parenting Autism Challenges Together) is to provide community awareness of Autism and help support our families where every day lives are challenged with a child in their family with Autism, Autism Spectrum disorder, PDD-NOS, and other neurological disorders.
Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and is the result of a neurological disorder that affects the normal functioning of the brain, impacting development in the areas of social interaction and communication skills. Both children and adults with autism typically show difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, social interactions, and leisure or play activities as well as possible challenges academically.
If you have any interests, questions, concerns, or feedback regarding any aspect of our support group, we would love for you to share with us. Our aim is to provide information, training and workshops regarding topics that families affected by special needs issues are interested in. Also, if you would like to be a guest speaker at our support meeting, please contact us.
